We Buy Houses In Miami-Dade County - Sell Your House Fast For Cash
Miami-Dade is the clearest example anywhere in Florida of a house being worth less than the ground it sits on. In Coconut Grove and Coral Gables there are genuinely distressed properties sitting a few doors down from new construction worth multiples of them. That gap is the whole reason we buy here.
As-is, in any condition. No repairs, no cleaning, no commissions, no fees. Close in as little as 14 days, or on whatever date works for you.
Why Miami-Dade County owners call us
The land is worth more than the house
This is the defining Miami-Dade situation. An owner is offered a number based on a deteriorating structure when the lot itself - particularly where zoning permits more than one unit - carries most of the value. Anyone selling here should understand what the dirt is worth before accepting anything.
Is your land worth more than your house? →An estate nobody local is handling
Long-held family properties in the Grove, Gables and South Miami frequently pass to heirs who live in another state or another country. The carrying costs in this county are not small, and they run the entire time probate does.
Selling an inherited house →Insurance and inspection reality
Older South Florida housing runs into roof age, wind mitigation and structural issues that make coverage expensive or unobtainable. A house that cannot be insured cannot be financed by a retail buyer.
When you can’t get insurance →A rebuild that was never done properly
Post-hurricane repairs done without permits, or permits never closed out, surface during title work and stop conventional sales. We deal with those ourselves after closing.
Selling with code violations →What we look for here
The houses we buy in Miami-Dade County
The Grove and the older parts of Coral Gables run to 1920s through 1950s construction - frame and early CBS, on lots that are now worth far more than anything standing on them. South Miami and Pinecrest are largely 1950s and 1960s ranches, many never meaningfully updated. Kendall, Palmetto Bay and Cutler Bay are dominated by 1960s through 1980s block houses, a great many of them rebuilt or patched after Andrew in 1992, with the quality of that work varying enormously. Across all of it: flat roofs at the end of their life, aluminium wiring, cast-iron drain lines, and jalousies.
Houses, duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes - plus single-family houses on land zoned for multifamily, where the lot is frequently worth more than the building.

The honest part
When you should list instead
If your house is in reasonable shape, you have sixty to ninety days, you have equity, and you can handle showings - list it. A normal sale in Miami-Dade County will almost certainly net you more than we can offer, even after commission. That is simply true, and any cash buyer who tells you otherwise is not being straight with you.
We earn our discount when there is a deadline you cannot move, work you cannot fund, a tenant who will not cooperate, a property full of belongings, or heirs spread across three states who just want it finished. If you are not sure which one you are, call and we will tell you honestly - including when the answer is “list it”.
Miami-Dade County questions
Do you buy on Key Biscayne, Miami Beach or the other islands?
No. We buy on the mainland only - the Grove, Gables, South Miami, Pinecrest, Palmetto Bay, Cutler Bay and Kendall. Barrier islands and the Keys are outside what we do.
How would I know if my lot is worth more than my house?
Zoning is public record, and what it permits is often more than what is built. Ask us and we will tell you what we see, including where the number is coming from. It is the same arithmetic either way, so you may as well know it before you talk to anyone.
My Miami-Dade house has unpermitted work on it. Does that stop a sale?
It stops a financed sale, frequently. It does not stop us. Unpermitted additions, enclosed carports and unclosed permits are ordinary here and we account for them in the offer rather than walking away over them.
